I would have to say that apart from the lose it / drop it problem, the Nintendo DS Lite probably represents the best solution for you and your son. There are a lot of great child-focused games for the platform, and it does not rely on your son having to be in front of the TV.

If you're talking game console running through your TV, I would say Nintendo Wii. It has fewer games but several are aimed at younger gamers. Otherwise consider Nintendo DS Lite - under £100 and some great kids games. Its a handheld console though so consider the chances of him dropping it / losing it / breaking it etc. Another alternative is "no games machine at all" - a 7 years old he should be running around playing football, climbing trees etc as well as reading books etc. I'm not sure I would buy a console for someone so young. Consider long-term RSI implications.

Hi Nickie, - I've heard of things like the V-Smile from those V-tech.com chaps, but honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with a Nintendo DS (which is about £99). My boy is 8 and loves the thing. Scarily enough he also likes the Cooking Mama game so I think he may have a "creative streak" in him.. There are hundreds of other games and it's the main handheld console which Nintendo is promoting and creating games for right now.
